Could someone please document Custom themes in the Emacs manual?
I know nothing about them, but some naive questions:
Do they already work? Are they used anywhere? The command to create
a theme seems to be `customize-create-theme'. Grepping seems to show
that it is not used once outside cus-theme.el, where it is defined.
Not one single theme appears to be defined in the Emacs source tree.
So it might seem too early to document them in the Emacs manual. I
have the impression that an Emacs user who is not an Elisp programmer
needs pre-defined themes, to get any benefit from themes (but I may be
wrong). The are not documented in the Elisp manual either. I have no
idea whether or not it is too early to do that.
Sincerely,
Luc.
